The Joomla! Forum™

Webgyrl - With nearing 150,000 forum users, *we* as forum users have to adapt and not expect the rules to be adapted for us. Just from a practical standpoint, consider the challenge and frustration to the forum group if each of the nearly 150,000 forum users required this type of explanation and de...

Is that necessary? You have a number of options available now. Perhaps that is enough?

Is what necessary? My question to Brad? If that is what you are referring to, it's always nice to know what someone searched for if you had an unsuccessful search for something.

I never would have know that if you hadn't mentioned it. This feature would be incredibly helpful. Is there a tutorial on how to even use the boards? That would be great. .. the button before the rules... http://forum.joomla.org/index.php?action=help Thank you Brad. It doesn't mention anything that...

If you search Google and mozdev, you will find: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html?name=forum.joomla.org&sherlock=yes&opensearch=yes&submitform=Search Thanks Brad. This is really helpful. Just out of curiosity, what search term(s) did you use? When I searched I used "search en...

I'm wondering... does anyone have or know how to make an extension for Firefox that places the link to this search form in the "Search Engines drop down". It looks like this: http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/5841/jsearchtq7.th.jpg Basically it gives you a text area to do a search on part...

This is really awesome! Thanks!

WRobinson: Thank you for all that excellent info! The titles of some of the boards, I will admit, are confusing. I never would have thought to post my bump question in this forum, for example. I guess I have to take more time to familiarize myself with the boards. To be honest, it's hard to do that ...

Webgyrl - I am going to tease you a bit here. The fact that you are asking this question tells me something. You are not searching the forums first!  :o If you had, you would have found several discussions of this very question, including this discussion . It's a rule that makes sense but frustrate...

Thanks brad, I appreciate that.

@webgyrl I have reviewed your post and provided some idea's for you to look in to....  The fact that you really didn't didn't provide much diagnostic information and stacked three different questions in to the same post, probably scared off some folks from entering your post, may I suggest in futur...

I can't say for sure why people are not answering your questions, but there is always the option of paying someone to help you if you are not familiar enough with Joomla. I'd really prefer to learn so that I can manage the issues myself. That is why I visit peer 2 peer forums. Thanks for your answer.

Hi, mod edit: brad Removed Private Message My question is: If no one answers a question you have posted, do you just start a new thread after a certain period of time? To me this seems silly because if there is already a topic in existence then the new thread would just take up room. What the best e...

If anyone else is using Fantastico:

I just did the upgrade by FTPing the files using FileZilla to my site. It upgraded fine.
For upgrade instructions go here:
http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,33226.0.html

How do I go about getting these updates in fantastico? If I upgrade without using fantastico will I compromise future update capability via fantastico? Yeah I would like to know about Fantastico. They don't show an upgrade button to upgrade the installation. Should I download "Joomla_1.0.0_to_1.0.1...
